I live about 35 minutes away from Ft. Bragg and have always made it a point to go to the post on Fridays so that I could get a few Paraglide newspapers. The last few weeks have been quite disappointing to me as I get there Friday morning and there is not a paper to be found. If you are on Ft Bragg could you please share what time they get the Paraglide out? I'd appreciate it as gas is expensive and hate having to come home empty handed.

RE: Ft. Bragg Paraglide

We went to the north post commissary on Tuesday and used our coupons for our weekly grocery trip and the cashier told us why there were never any paraglides. She said last Thursday that a woman came and got all of the paraglides on both sides. She took them all and loaded them in her car. I am very upset about this. It is very unfair that she thinks she can take all of them and not leave any for anyone else. I understand grabbing a few of them but the cashier said she got all of them as soon as they put them out. I am not sure why she would need all of them unless she is selling them on ebay or online. I am not sure who to talk to or what to do about the fact that she takes them all. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

RE: Ft. Bragg Paraglide

Couldn't ya'll complain to the office that puts out the post paper? I know that if that happened at Offutt AFB, I'd probably find the base paper's office and ask them how this is supposed to work and if there's anything they can do.

I don't know if it will work, but it's worth a shot. How rude of someone to take all the papers.

RE: Ft. Bragg Paraglide

Did anyone get a paraglide today???
I couldn't find them anywhere but I didn't go on post. Every box from Hope Mills to Owen dr was empty.

I called up the the Paraglide office and they said they are on it and aware of people selling the coupons. So hopefully this gets fixed soon they also said they have some in their office so you can go there to get one.

RE: Ft. Bragg Paraglide

There hasn't been a paraglide in over three weeks. If not longer. I know this because I alway check the 24 hour shopette at midnight and five am. Plus on top of that it gets delivered to my house and BDE weekly. Have yet to see one in weeks. This week I will be making an ICE complaint about the paraglide and calling the press office about it too.

Ladies the paraglide is out. On the front page it explains all about the hoarders. They have changed there delivery hours, to help prevent people from taking more than one. Maybe I will finally get one delivered to my house.

Awesome! I'll have to check around tomorrow to see if I can get one.

I also saw on their facebook page about these people losing their post privileges.... I hope this makes them think twice!

i guess they've realized this week how many people get the paper since its 1 per person, such a shame for all those inserts to go to waste, a family of five would benefit more with at least 4 of those papers, now i have to spend $6 just got get the number of papers we need SMH....

RE: Ft. Bragg Paraglide

All the Paraglide locations I am aware of now have a sign stating that only one per person by order of Garrison Command. So, all of us who were not greedy and only took a couple can now give a big shout out and thanks to all those who were walking away with an entire stack of papers. It only takes a few selfish people to ruin it for the rest of us. I was irritated before because they were being wiped out and I was told by the paper and the people who work at the base locations it was the same people every week taking them all, then when they started changing delivery hours, I was finally able to grab one, and now they have had to actually give out orders that no one is allowed to take more than one to prevent this ridiculous behavior. I feel bad for those who have large families, but unfortunately this is what happens and I guarantee the people who have been doing this do not care about how their actions have affected the rest of us, and will just find another way to circumvent the system that has now been put in place to enable others to receive the paper as well. In case its not obvious my irritation with this entire thing has climbed to an all time high. Now we have to have the type of rules you would give children put in place for adults....you would tell your kids, don't be selfish, don't take so much, leave some for others...but now here we are as adults having to be told the same thing as if we are the little children.

RE: Ft. Bragg Paraglide

I live in Hope Mills and I can never find any paraglides. I thought I found a secret place that had them but I went this week and they were cleaned out. Does anyone know anywhere in Hope Mills that carries them?
